Details

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

USB: class: cdc-wdm: Fix CPU lockup caused by excessive log messages

The syzbot fuzzer found that the interrupt-URB completion callback in the cdc-wdm driver was taking too long, and the driver's immediate resubmission of interrupt URBs with -EPROTO status combined with the dummy-hcd emulation to cause a CPU lockup:

cdcwdm 1-1:1.0: nonzero urb status received: -71 cdcwdm 1-1:1.0: wdmintcallback - 0 bytes watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#0 stuck for 26s!

Testing showed that the problem did not occur if the two error messages -- the first two lines above -- were removed; apparently adding material to the kernel log takes a surprisingly large amount of time.

In any case, the best approach for preventing these lockups and to avoid spamming the log with thousands of error messages per second is to ratelimit the two deverr() calls. Therefore we replace them with deverr_ratelimited().
